Steel Fire-Rated Screens in Clevedon: what's included
Steel fire-rated screens use steel frame sections to hold fire-resistant glass, and they are the usual choice when a project needs slim sightlines with a high rating, large panes or heavy insulating glass. Steel keeps its strength well in fire and can carry the weight of thick EI glass over long spans.
- Single, double and sliding door options within the system
- Integrity and insulating glass up to EI 120 where the system allows
- Fire-stopping and deflection heads
- Gridded industrial-style layouts
What to check before ordering steel fire-rated screens in Clevedon
Finishes and the rating
Paint and powder coat are normally covered by the evidence, but intumescent strips and seals must not be painted over. We protect them during finishing.
Weight and fixing
Steel screens with insulating glass are heavy. Fixings are taken from the system details and the substrate is checked to carry the load.
Lead times
Steel systems are fabricated to measure, so allow for survey, drawings, approval and fabrication before the fit date.
